The Ministry of Industry (Kemenperin) has also facilitated the Indonesian aerospace industry to appear at the Hannover Messe 2023 exhibition in Germany. The aerospace industry is one of the sectors that has great potential to encourage national economic growth. The focus of its development includes the aircraft repair industry, the aircraft component industry, and the Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) industry. "Through this support, it is hoped that the domestic MRO industry will be increasingly recognized and recognized in the global industrial service market," said the Ministry of Industry's Director General of Metal, Machinery, Transportation Equipment and Electronics (ILMATE) Taufiek Bawazier in a written statement, quoted Friday, April 21. PT Garuda Maintenance Facility (PT GMF) as the largest aircraft MRO company in Indonesia and FL Technics Indonesia as a company of MRO from Europe, collaborated to present their latest aircraft maintenance solution at the Hannover Messe 2023 event. The two companies are members of the Indonesia Aircraft Maintenance Service Association (IAMSA). The promotion of domestic industrial products at Hannover Messe can also strengthen the brand image of GMF Aero Asia and FL Technic as the main players in the MRO industry in Indonesia. "With this collaborative effort, it is hoped that the national MRO industry can progress and develop, and be able to make a positive contribution to Indonesia's overall economic growth," said Taufiek. According to him, as the government has launched the Making Indonesia 4.0 roadmap, the MRO industry is expected to be able to implement digital technology, such as artificial intelligence and the internet of things in its industrial ecosystem. "In order to accelerate this digital transformation, the government simultaneously provides various fiscal incentives, such as tax holidays, tax allowances, and super tax deductions," said Taufiek. For your information, in Hannover Messe 2023, GMF shows off XPream, an integrated application that provides real-time data to facilitate project monitoring processes and activities from start to finish. This digital innovation will also provide data-based input that helps customers prevent operational delays. Meanwhile, FL Technics Indonesia showcases the latest and best aircraft maintenance solutions of various types of aircraft.
